View Quote I dont get it? whats wrong with the picture |

Lots of precision uppers are tuned for high quality ammo. Use low power and they won't cycle. Open the gas ports and use higher power ammo and it over cycles. I guess that's bad for a precision upper.

i got 1:22 in, the gun is short cycling on PMC. that guy is a fuck tard. way back when I was running ARs I had this really reliable SP1 upper. it ran damn near anything including wolf....but not pmc. short cycled like a mofo. i ran it over the chrono. 2750 fps from a 20 inch barrel and 55 grn bullet. WAY THE FUCK UNDER LOADED. I don't need to watch anymore. fuckwit boy needs to buy atleast semi decent ammo and PMC isn't it. LOL - you may be onto something. "But it runs fine in my bolt gun" for reference the wolf was 2950-3000, and umc was 3060-3080 fyi. |

I probably won't read a 5 paragraph rebuttal anymore than I'd watch the 45 minute video.
I think the best rebuttal would be, "Oops, we'll do better next time". |

Nutnfancy is a douche of the highest order. He praises products over and over again that he sells, while being dismissive of competitor products. I honestly can't believe anyone is stupid enough to listen to his shit.

In on this...waiting for a mushroom cloud response of Dillo Dust.

View Quote Agreed (with the PMC statement, I have watched the dude's videos -maybe 2- for about 30 seconds). Before MI allowed SBR's I had AR pistols, long story short PMC ran like sh*t on 16" rifles but would not cycle the shorter barrel pistols.Even tried the M855 PMC and had the similar problems. Had no problems with federal or IMI in either M855 or M193. |

What is the story? This guy is a youtube gun reviewer and did a vid on Larue products? I've never watched his vids, does he just do negative stuff? What were his complaints? I don't have time to watch a video plus I don't care to give him hits. You can NOT have been here almost as long as I have, with that post count, and NOT know who Nutnfancy is. It is not possible. I've heard the name, but know almost nothing about him. Nutnfancy is like the Mr. Rogers of the gun world. Hes reminds me of one of those guys who has a huge toy train set up complete with landscaping in his basement. |

I dont get it? whats wrong with the picture I don't believe that's a LaRue gas block, To give you an idea of what's going on here, imagine someone buys a BMW, thinks it's shifting funny and then yanks out the factory transmission and replaces it with one he found in a junkyard from a Chevette. Then when it doesn't work he complains that it's broken and BMW sucks. |

Quoted: Its a PRI front flip up. I indexed the gas block off the index hole on the bottom of the barrel, PRI bottom has a "sight hole" in its mount and the SS barrel has the index spot drilled into it to correspond to the gas hole on the other side. I have this for 5 years now and its a tack driver and has never been under gassed. So based on that one picture, its conclusive of the shooter putting the it on wrong. Same kinda gap http://i21.photobucket.com/albums/b262/die-tryin/photo1-7.jpg Bottom indexing hole http://i21.photobucket.com/albums/b262/die-tryin/photo-9.jpg Ive never heard of this NutFancy guy before, but I find it funny that no one can admit that maybe the gas hole wasnt drilled to spec.

Well, look at it like this. The shooter doesnt want to admit he is a dumbass and a vendor isnt going to own up to a mistake (if there had been one) It does sound lke the shooter was monkeying around with the gas blocks, it doesnt take much to get them off center. |

I appreciate your point. but is the gas hole in the gas block not big enough to handle some tolerance slack? Not really. ESPECIALLY when using underpowered ammo.

Oh, and be sure to change your buffer and spring if it don't work right. |

Built my first AR and it runs like a raped ape (after I unfucked the hammer spring).
I build rifles better than LaRue?? Who'd a thunk it. I would have shot it stock and then if there was trouble talked to mfgr. Then shot it stock more. If problem persisted send it back. Definately not painted, changed parts, send back, change more parts and then bitch about it for ten minutes in a forty minute video. Mfgrs want to figure out what went wrong more than the customer. He just thinks he knows more than he does. Hear almost every problem guessed in the opening 5mins? |
